    Thanks Andy,
    This is one of the best prospecting videos.
    Not just because you got some nice gold, but due to how well you described your equipment and how you chose the spots to fossick.
    Thanks

I haven’t seen any other machine out perform it yet, especially in this hot ground where VLF machines struggle to run stable. But I’ve had a few people say the gold hawk goes pretty good. Maybe one day I’ll get one. Cheers for the welcome mate 🙌

    G'Day Andy great start to your channel mate and no partner either. Yes I would suggest a go-pro mate they are hands free like a head lamp great inventions lol. Nice afternoon haul mate especially now that gold is now over $4,137 AUD an ounce. Those six & seven thousand detectors are pretty much the top of the detector range and at $10k not your average entry level detectors same with the 5000's. What would you recommend for those just starting out mate and what price range if you don't mind me asking?. Anyways glad your on here and stay safe now.

    I would have a small bowl to put the stuff instead of on the ground if filming, because if you have two hands, you just swipe the hand over the detector and discard, and then then next handful or such.
